I just noticed that in the systemd logs of jetty12 there is:/usr/libexec/jetty12/jetty-start.sh: 15: cd: can't cd to /var/lib/jetty Log snippet: Feb 27 07:57:35 ci-058-e8bb2f4d systemd[1]: Started jetty12.service - Jetty 12 Web Application Server. Feb 27 07:57:35 ci-058-e8bb2f4d jetty12[3822]: /usr/libexec/jetty12/jetty-start.sh: 15: cd: can't cd to /var/lib/jetty Feb 27 07:57:37 ci-058-e8bb2f4d jetty12[3825]: WARN : Use of both ${jetty.base}/start.d and ${jetty.base}/start.ini is deprecated I guess the dir should be /var/lib/jetty12 instead of /var/lib/jetty. Maybe it has something to do with this line? https://sources.debian.org/src/jetty12/12.0.32-2/debian/sysusers/jetty12.conf?hl=7#L7
I'm not sure to understand what is causing this error. The jetty user has the /var/lib/jetty directory as home, which is normal since the user is shared between different versions of Jetty. But the jetty-start.sh script has a cd command to the $JETTY_BASE directory, which is initialized to /var/lib/jetty12 in the service file, and may be overridden in /etc/default/jetty12 (I checked on my system, the variable is not overridden and I still get the error in the log).
What mechanism sets JETTY_BASE to /var/lib/jetty instead of /var/lib/jetty12?
BTW, I noticed that /usr/libexec/jetty12/jetty-start.sh references TOMCAT & CATALINA... Is this normal?
This is fixed in jetty12/12.0.33-1 Emmanuel Bourg
